Cruiser Motorbike

Hi Guys,

Don't do a lot of transport stuff but I was putting the bike away yesterday and thought I'd take a quick(ish) shot as I liked the plain bricks behind. The bike is a Yamaha XVS 1300, if anyone cares, I do a few shots of it now and then when I'm a bit short on inspiration. It was lit with 2 speedlights, each at about 45 degrees to the bike and triggered with the ST-E2. Thoughts on this one welcome guys, thanks for looking

That looks like a bit of a beast :nuts:,though personally,I prefer the 'sit up & beg' style myself
Lots of black and chrome looks great and works well against the brickwork
Not sure the watermark does the shot justice ,saying that,it doesn't look out of place

Thanks Martyn, a beast indeed, I love it. I think the UK is pretty sports bike mad tbh, but the torque on this is brill.

Anyway I thought I'd get a few "too over processed" comments but it doesn't look like it, I'm a firm believer that less is more, this is about as closer to over cooking as I like. Anyway ta for looking bud.
